CARLES BASSÓ AND JOSEP MARIA VIDAL

Built on the site of Barcelona's venerable Pujol i Brull clinic, the Hotel Granados 83 brings an entirely modern concept of luxury to a notable Old City location. Hotel Granados 83 is constructed around a luminous central courtyard that radiates from an elevator shaft leading to a glass ceiling. This extraordinarily vertical public space is the guiding organizational principle for the whole hotel. The original colonnades are enhanced by modern steel, red marble, glass and iron, but the lobby is dotted by strategically placed antiques and objets d’art.

ASIAN ART MEETS MODERN TACTILITY

In the 77 loft-style guestrooms, all furnishings are covered in phosphorescent iron plating in order to create visual and tactile consistency. Here, Asian pieces of art soften the high-tech facilities and ultramodern materials. A soothing social buzz prevails in Granados 83’s public areas. Images are constantly projected onto the walls, giving a sense of constant low-level movement.
